GIFTS In today’s readings, we discover that material wealth alone

does not keep us from discipleship. We will see that there are other gifts more important than material wealth, but even so, it

is how we use our gifts that matters most. Today’s scriptures point to the value of the gifts of wisdom,

trusting in God, and letting our actions reflect the love of God from within. It is not gold that causes us to fall, but rather the desire for gold above all other things. From the readings in

Wisdom and Hebrews, we find the source of God’s gifts in our lives. Wisdom is more valuable than worldly possessions. In Hebrews, we are challenged to look at our own values and

admit honestly what controls our lives.

Vigésimo Octavo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 10 de octubre de 2021

PRESENTACION DE NIÑOS Esta es una tradición mexicana muy popular relacionada con la Presentación de Jesús al Templo. Tradicionalmente es celebrada durante los primeros cuarenta días después del nacimiento del bebé, o como una bendición al cumplir tres años. La presentación de niños se celebran el 2do domingo de cada mes. La presentación es solo para niños de 2semanas de nacidos hasta los 3 años de edad y solo si el niño/niña aun NO ha sido bautizado. Los padres deben llegar por lo menos 20 minutos antes del comienzo de la misa y confirmar su presencia con la coordinadora de la comunidad hispana; Maribel Estévez. Favor de llamar a la oficina parroquial para mas información.

DONES En las lecturas de hoy, se descubre que la riqueza material por sí sola no nos impide ser discípulos. Veremos que hay otros

dones más importantes que la riqueza material, pero aún así, es cómo usamos nuestros dones lo que más importa.

Las Escrituras de hoy señalan el valor de los dones de la sabiduría, la confianza en Dios y dejando que nuestras acciones reflejen el amor de Dios desde nuestro interior. No es el oro lo

que nos hace caer, sino más bien el deseo del oro por encima de todas las demás cosas. De las lecturas de la Sabiduría y de la Carta a los Hebreos, encontramos la fuente de los dones de Dios en nuestras vidas. La sabiduría es más valiosa que las posesiones mundanas. En Hebreos se nos reta a examinar nuestros valores y admitir honestamente lo que controla

nuestras vidas.

La palabra de Dios es viva, eficaz y más penetrante que una espada de dos filos.

— Hebreos 4:12

Novena de Todas las Almas Recuerde a su ser querido difunto con la Novena de Todas las Almas. Los sobres están disponibles en

el vestíbulo. Estos sobres se colocarán en el altar durante la duración de, la novena.

11 Reglas de Oro Para Asistir y Vivir la Misa

1. No usar el celular: No lo necesitas para hablar con Dios. Los teléfonos celulares nunca deben utilizarse en Misa para hacer llamadas o enviar mensajes de texto. Apage o poner en silencio sus teléfonos celulares antes de la Misa. 2. Ayunar antes de la celebración eucarística. Consiste en abstenerse de tomar cualquier alimento o bebida, al menos desde una hora antes de la Sagrada Comunión, a excepción del agua y de las medicinas. 3. No comer ni beber en la iglesia. Llevar un bocadillo a la iglesia no es apropiado, porque el templo es un lugar de oración y reflexión. 4. No goma de mascar. Al hacer esto se rompe con el ayuno, ocurre una distracción, se es descortés en un entorno formal, y no ayuda en la oración. 5. No usar sombrero. Es descortés usar un sombrero dentro de una iglesia. Así como nos sacamos el sombrero cuando se hace un juramento, igual debe hacer en la iglesia como un signo de respeto. 6. Vestir con modestia. A los católicos se les invita a asistir vestidos adecuadamente ya que, si es algo que se suele hacer comúnmente para una fiesta o algún otro tipo de compromiso, no hay razón para no hacer lo mismo al asistir a Misa. 7. Llegar algunos minutos antes del inicio de la Misa. Si por alguna razón no se puede llegar a tiempo, es recomendable sentarse en la parte de atrás para no molestar a las demás personas. Llegar a la Misa temprano permite orar y prepararse mejor para recibir a Cristo. 8. Arrodillarse hacia el Sagrario al entrar y salir del templo. Durante la Misa, si se pasa delante del altar o del tabernáculo, se debe inclinar la cabeza con reverencia. 9. Permanecer en silencio durante la celebración. Al ingresar al templo se debe guardar silencio. Si tiene un niño o un bebé, puede sentarse cerca de alguna salida ante cualquier contratiempo. 10. Inclinarse al recibir la comunión. Si es Dios, entonces se puede mostrar respeto inclinando cabeza como reverencia. Si lo desea puede hacer una genuflexión. Esta es una práctica antigua que ha continuado hasta el día de hoy. 11. Espere a que la Misa termine. Debemos permanecer en la Misa hasta la bendición final. Recuerde que uno de los mandamientos de la Iglesia es oír Misa entera los domingos y fiestas de guardar. La salida debe ser en silencio a fin de no molestar a otras personas que deseen permanecer en el templo rezando.
